Abstract

PCT No. PCT/DE81/00158 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 11, 1983 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 11, 1983 PCT Filed Sep. 30, 1981 PCT Pub. No. WO83/01307 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 14, 1983.A device for the determination of the charging level in a container has a vibrator on which two torsional vibrators (10, 12) of the same resonance frequency vibrate in an opposite way. The vibration elements (10, 12) are arranged coaxially and have a common center of rotation (20) which is located in the center of a diaphragm (14) serving as a return spring for the outer element (10). The inner element (12) is designed in the shape of a rod and has a tapering (17) in the area of the center of rotation (20) acting as a return spring. Owing to the design according to the invention, a charging level determination is possible with goods charged of a high and of a low density whereby the detection sensitivity is almost independent of the clamping conditions of the vibrator.
